the fraudulent claims of lance armstrong. there has been a whistle-blower lawsuit filed by one of the members of the team. there is a law that says if you expose fraud, you can be compensated. the u.s. government may say lance armstrong should be responsible for that award. and then you have companies, as you say, like nike and other companies that depended upon his good reputation to market their products, and they could claim that they have been defrauded. so lots of potential civil lawsuits against lance armstrong, depending upon what he tells oprah in that interview. >> and if you're a lawyer, on either side, if you're lance armstrong's lawyer or you're on the anti-doping side, you're one of the agencies, these bodies looking at his record, what are you looking for in that interview? >> well, i'm looking for a precise admission to the use of performance-enhancing drugs and blood doping. i'm looking for him to say he actually did that. because you notice he rather brazenly in that deposition that was just played denies and

when i covered this big citywide party for lance armstrong. this is right after he won the tour de france his third time. some 15,000 people came together on auditorium shores nearby where we are to celebrate. brought the city together. and think about it, you know, this is a person who not only inspired people as an athlete but also as a cancer survivor. he became a real symbol of pride for the city of austin, texas, but now when you talk to people you can't help but be disappointed. personally, it's disappointing to tell this story especially when you saw his rise and now you're covering this fall. you feel like you were taken to a ride. that's really what you get when you talk to people here on the streets. take a listen. >> boy, he's an icon here. you know, people looked up to him. they admired him. now they're going to look at him maybe in a little bit of a negative light now. do we really want lance armstrong to be the icon of austin, texas? i think a lot of people have the that question in their mind now. i don't know if i want this guy
